I take great pleasure in understanding how something works.
Taking things apart and putting it back together, it is my belief that only from this vantage point, one can truly have an intimate understanding of how something works.

Originally from Hamburg, Germany, my love of taking things apart started with dismantling vintage Porsche engines.

That love has made a terrific segue to the Internet. I love the Internet for its infinite possibilities and how it connects people without regard to borders or language.

In 2008 I took a one year sabbatical journey around the world as a coding nomad.

Volstead Bar

Phillips Hue LED

Proprietor requested a simple mobile responsive design that focused on seating availability. I developed an application that connects to a Phillips HUE LED system inside the Volstead bar, which shows free and occupied tables via green and red colored lights during business hours, so guests can see the status of available seating in real time on the web.
